      Hey Guys,

      So in the past when I would build links for a client I would create a new email account or have them create a new email account for their website which I can use for email outreach for building links.

      Also I would try to use their twitter user accounts to get in contact with other niche bloggers for a potential link back or a social mention.

      Is this how you guys suggest I should continue going about building links for a client?  Or do you suggest using my email (agency email) or a random gmail account for email outreach?

      Thanks

        I'd suggest sticking to creating a new email account yourself or from your customer. Its easier for you to compartmentalise what is happening, especially when there is a flood of links!!

        I think it is also ethically more correct to use a customer's email address, you after all creating the links for them, not for yourself.

          Agreed, thanks for the input David.

          What is your take on creating Persona's or Pennames to promote content and acquire links for a client?

              I never respond to anyone using a gmail account. I always think it's someone who doesn't know who to set up an email.
